Loving this new app on the i-phone

SAGE, CHOCOLATE, CUPCAKES & COFFEE

I've spent these last days testing and in prep for testing. 

The lovely Kasha Harmer (fantastic and super lovely stylist)was lovely enough to let me take home some leftover paint from a shoot I was assisting on last week. I have used these paints to create some lovely backgrounds on MDF from Home-base. 

You can only really see them in the sage shots but there are some more tests to come. My best mate Anna is visiting after a trip through Europe and she has bought back some amazing vintage textiles that I am going to have a go at shooting. 

I've very excited to be joining her on the next leg of her journey in Lisbon and Santiago de Compostella. 

FRUITY

I've had the last two days off and had a great time testing.

Yesterday I was at Justyna's shooting her wedding dress and today I took inspiration from the bits and bobs in our tiny little flat and the delicious baked goodies at our friendly local cafe Ottolenghi.

Here are the results.....

Lemons and Lemon and Mascarpone Tarts from Ottolenghi

Shaw and Smith Sauvignon blanc and Strawberry with basil leaves

Apricots and Ottolenghi apricot cake with espresso

PETS ON SET

I've been assisting some fabulous photographers of late in some very interesting locations with very cute pets.... Here are some of the furry friends I have snapped recently on the old i-phone whilst on the job....

HIPSTAMATIC I-PHONE APP

Hipstamatic is a I-Phone app recommended by a friend which I have been having soooooo much fun with.

It's like shooting film on a digital camera that you can change lenses on.

Here are some snaps I took on the way home from the tube station.

Amazing what you can see on your everyday walk home.....

STRUGGLING SPRING

Spring should officially be here but it is still cold and miserable.

However, there are signs of hope..... even on the stormy days blossoms appear.
